With pickups in place the loco has now run on the layout for the first time and I’m pleased to say there don’t seem to be any problems. The pickups are top acting wipers for the rear 2 axles and for the front I have wipers that squeeze between wheel and cylinder. For the first time I have used Phosphor Bronze wire instead of brass and I must admit it is springier, which makes setting things up somewhat easier.
